In addition to her professional achievements, Taylor Swift is also commemorating a very personal triumph at home as her father, Scott Swift, recovers from severe heart surgery earlier this year.
Scott, 73, had quintuple bypass surgery the previous month after physicians found five blockages during a heart stress test, according to a July PEOPLE report.
After four months, Taylor posted a positive update on her dad's health, showing that he is stronger than ever.
During an appearance on SiriusXM's The Morning Mashup on October 6, the 35-year-old stated, "By his own account, he's actually at 150% now." In actuality, he is very energetic. He's doing great.
The singer, who spent the summer living with her father as he healed, stated that her family's first priority was to assist him in returning to his former self.
She continued, considering how the event had changed her viewpoint, "He had amazing medical care and help and doctors and nurses for whom I am going to be forever grateful."
It puts your priorities in a new context. I am reminded of how fortunate I am that he survived.
Scott, who is well-known among fans for giving them personalized guitar picks during Taylor Swift performances, has already resumed one of his favorite customs.
"He has new ones," she said, laughing.
"He gets new guitar picks made every time a new album is released so he can just take them out of his pocket and toss them or give them to diners." Everywhere we go, this occurs.
In August, Taylor previously said on fiancé Travis Kelce's New Heights podcast that her father now encourages his friends to undergo cardiac stress tests, attributing this to the test's ability to identify his problem before it worsened.
"You don't need to have a bypass surgery if you can find that earlier," she stated. "Stents and other less invasive procedures can be used to clear those blockages."
The most significant event of the year for Taylor and her family is Scott's health milestone, which serves as a reminder of fortitude, thankfulness, and the happiness that comes with sharing another birthday with him.
